(3) YA Elliott's well-researched novel focuses on Ginevra de' Benci's late teenage years. Newly married to a disinterested older husband, tempted by a Venetian diplomat, and chosen to model for Leonardo da Vinci, Ginevra is immersed in Renaissance politics, philosophy, and art. The deliberately paced story of a real woman and expansive detailing of Florence at its height of influence will interest dedicated historical-fiction readers.
